The value of work experience

Freddie (15) is now half-way through his work experience at Brookers in Hitchin. The value of it is already becoming clear to him. He's absolutely shattered every evening, but is beginning to see the attraction of a job well done.

He was very fortunate to be offered the opportunity in such a good local shop. He's seen friends and neighbours, as well as strangers, come in for their hardware, paint and lightbulbs.

I don't think he's ready to leave school just yet, but it's good to know that he can stick at a job when he's asked to.
